We went to California this year for the Interstate Battery convention and it was one to remember!
Everyone was mostly unfazed by the 4:30 a.m. meet-up time at the Roanoke airport that morning to catch our flight, but there were definitely some naps happening on the 4 hour flight from Chicago to CA...
My Ashely in the lobby at the hotel!
Michael joined us a few times while we were there...he was visiting friends in CA that week and it worked out for him to hang out with us some. Aaron and I went to an awesome Mexican dinner in downtown San Francisco with him on Thursday night.
Getting ready for the first meeting
Somehow we got talked into going to a go-cart race track Friday night with the guys..fun but hmmm...a little too much competition for me! But great to go out with everyone.
All spiffed up for the party on the U.S.S. Hornet on Saturday night
Aaron and I stepped on top of the aircraft carrier to take a look at the planes and the lights from downtown San Francisco.
Good-looking crew at the Sunday morning brunch
We had a blast on Sunday night eating out together
On Monday after his meetings we went on a tour to visit the Muir Woods...amazing redwood trees and a really enjoyable relaxing day with my favorite person in the world :)
Handsome!
I was being silly because the requirements to be quiet in the forest and follow all the rules were so intense haha
Final celebration on Monday night
Kyle Busch and Joe Gibbs and crew were there to answer questions and just make an appearance!
We had an amazing trip...definitely missed the kids but they did so well without us and enjoyed spending time with all the grandparents. Next one is in 2 years in Orlando and we'll probably take them with us!
It's 10 pm and I don't have it in me to put the following phone pictures in order with the other pictures from my camera that I just posted, so here they are in random order, mostly repeats of what has already been shared above, but just wanted to include them all here together!
